The Jedi Sanctuary

We wish you a warm welcome to the Jedi Sanctuary on-line temple!

We hope that your visit to our on-line temple will be informative and helpful.

In existence since 7 July 2003, the common thread of our Jedi sanctuary congregation has been star wars and the philosophical teachings of the Jedi Knights.

Jedi Sanctuary is the Jedi Religion the way it is meant to be followed:

• No High Councils
• No Rituals
• You can belong to any Religion and still be a Jedi (Christians, Buddhist, Pagans, and everyone else who follows that which is right are welcome).
• We’re about positive change in the world.
• We haven’t turned our back on Lucas’ Star Wars. 
• We like to discuss what happened in the movie and also discuss classics of literature.
• We’re really into Joseph Campbell (don’t know who that is?  See you should join!)
• We discuss all aspects of being a Jedi, fitness, meditation, conflict resolution, negotiation, staying positive, making good decisions, having healthy relationships, trusting in the Force, and personal growth. 
• And finally – we don’t take ourselves too seriously. (It's FUN to be a Jedi!)
• The Sanctuary was founded by Jedi converts who really didn’t like what was happening with so called high councils and people calling themselves masters. We’re non-political, non-militant, and pro-active in our communities.  

The Jedi Code:
There is no emotion; there is peace.
There is no ignorance; there is knowledge.
There is no passion; there is serenity.
There is no death; there is the Force.

The Jedi of our congregation welcomes you again and thanks you for visiting our website. May the force be with you!

Overview

"The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together."

--Ben to Luke

• Jedi are the guardians of peace in the galaxy.
• Jedi use their powers to defend and protect, never to attack.
• Jedi respect all life, in any form.
• Jedi serve others rather then ruling over them, for the good of the galaxy.
• Jedi seek to improve themselves though knowledge and training.
• These are five good rules to live by in my opinion. Here are some other things that make us Jedi:
• Jedi live in the present, not the past or the future.
• Jedi stay mindful of the Living Force.
• Jedi learn to trust their feelings and instincts, and listen to their inner wisdom.
• Jedi feel devotion to the Living Force. Jedi are determined never to serve the dark side. Devotion to the Force can carry a Jedi through the many trials of life.

We not only live, we also unify... We are connected to everything and everyone around us. We are connected with the universe, and it also is connected to us. We are life... We are a connection to the highest will... We are unified with The Force.

The spiritual teachings of Star Wars were taken from real religions, and they are ‘the real part’ of Star Wars. The fighting skills of the Jedi were taken from real eastern martial arts too. The psychic skills of the Jedi were taken from the New Age Movement, and are also real skills that can be developed. So, the spiritual teachings, the martial skills and the psychic skills, are the true or real parts of ‘Star Wars’. The rest of Star Wars is pure mythology, and enjoyable mythology at that.

In summary, Jediism is a real faith. Our Jedi group is a certified congregation affiliated with the Universal Life Church (ULC) of Modesto, California. We have the same protected status that any other faith has.

MTFBWY! ~May the Force Be With You~ !
